Learning FPV: My Journey with Drones

As I mentioned yesterday, I’ve been working on my latest weekly videos featuring my new drone practice spot near home. While reviewing the footage today, I realized that the video has naturally transformed into a guide for FPV beginners like myself, as Iโ€™m still learning the ropes. Instead of sharing a polished video showcasing professional-level skills, I’ve decided to embrace my practice sessionsโ€”complete with all the fails and cringe-worthy moments. I believe this authentic approach could not only entertain seasoned pros but also inspire fellow FPV beginners to share their own learning journeys.

Creating videos outdoors with portable equipment and then editing that content allows me to hone my videography skills. It genuinely feels like a win for personal development on multiple levels.

This video captures my first experience at the drone practice spot, and I also have another video in the works from a day later, where I recorded differently with a focus on practicing racing in the same area.

This blog is for thoughtful adults who are starting again โ€” in learning, creativity, or life โ€” and want to grow steadily without noise or pressure.

Here youโ€™ll find daily reflections and practical guides shaped by lived experience. The focus is on learning through doing: building consistency, adapting to change, and finding clarity in everyday practice.

The stories and guides here come from real processes โ€” creative experiments, hands-on projects, life in rural Japan, working with nature, and learning new skills step by step. Nothing is rushed. Nothing is polished for performance. The aim is steady progress, honest reflection, and practical insight you can actually use.

If youโ€™re curious about life in Japan, learning new skills at your own pace, or finding a calmer, more intentional way forward, youโ€™re in the right place.
